The Design Process
Grainger were selected to develop two council-owned sites in RBKC as part of a single partnership; this site at Young Street in Kensington, and the other at Hortensia Road in Chelsea which was developed to provide 31 affordable homes. Proposals were subject to a Planning Performance Agreement during which seven pre-application meetings and two design review panels were held. Officers recommended the scheme for approval, and resolution to grant was achieved at the major development committee in January 2014. The Section 106 was signed in March 2014, and a further NMA application was approved in November 2014.
